Provide results of Tuberculin skin test.

Parent and community volunteers must complete a volunteer application and be cleared of tuberculosis (TB) before volunteering on our campus. According to state law, all staff and volunteers must have clearance from tuberculosis on record. The clearance is good for four years. Our school district does not provide TB tests and clearances. Volunteers must secure this clearance on their own and provide documentation to the main office. See below for additional screening requirements.

Parent and community volunteers MUST sign in at the office and pick up a volunteer or visitor badge before entering the school. All volunteers must sign out each day in the book provided in the office.

To protect the confidentiality of our students, the following jobs are not given to volunteers:

Jobs that require access to office and student records.

Jobs that reveal information about student progress.

Jobs that take the student away from the supervision of a teacher.
